I definately support... Glad i'm not the only one who wants this guy in smash. And for the final smash you described it would be cool to have a small easter egg with normal zigzagoons & liloones running around as well.
Also, I want a pokéball guy mii brawler costume, because that would be awesome.
Also the MISSINGNO. song from pokémon yellow as one of his music tracks. It would be awesome.
It's been awhile, but some cool stuff came out. First off, Obstagoon plushies are now availible (yay), second, Obstagoon's pokemon card says that the Obstagoon we know is only the Galarian variant, meaning we could see a non galarian obstagoon in the future.
After the Galarian Zigzagoon and Linoone were added to Pokemon Go, you can also get Obstagoon. He's one of two Galar Pokemon in the game right now.
Just thought I'd mention it.

What is Obstagoon? View attachment 233909
Obstagoon is a Pokémon that is set to appear in the upcoming games Pokémon Sword and Shield. It is a dark and normal type, and the evolved form of galarian linoone. It is known as the blocking Pokémon.
Why should this thing be in Smash?
Obstagoon is the first cross generational evolution (a pokemon evolution that is gained in a generation after the base pokemon is revealed in) bar the eeveelutions, to appear in more than a decade, since Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, in 2008. It is also the first pokemon to evolve specifically from a regional variant, a first, since they were added in Pokémon Sun and Moon.
